Neal Morse Band premiere Long Day/Overture video

The Neal Morse Band premiere the Long Day/Overture video, the opening tracks from the forthcoming concept album The Similitude Of A Dream, which is scheduled for release on 11th November 2016 through Metal Blade Records.

The ideas behind the album is taken from the works of 17th century writer John Bunyan – Neal Morse explains: “THE SIMILITUDE OF A DREAM is loosely and sometimes directly based on the book, Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan. The book’s original title was The Pilgrim’s Progress from this world to the that which is to come, delivered under the similitude of a dream, and it was originally published in 1678.”

“I honestly think this is THE album of my career,” declares Portnoy. “Neal and I have now made 18 studio albums together, and I consider THE SIMILITUDE OF A DREAM the absolute creative pinnacle of our collaborations together. I’ve always had a soft spot for double concept albums such as Pink Floyd’s THE WALL and The Who’s TOMMY, and I can bravely say that I think we’ve created an album here that can sit side by side with those masterpieces. Bold words, I know, but after a career of almost 50 albums, I honestly consider this to be one of the defining works of my career.”
